The Hi-Power was introduced in 1935. Germany took over the FN plant in Belgium early in the war and issued some P-35's. Britain had some P-35's. Maybe the only handgun to be used on two sides of the front in WWII?
So why didn't it see more widespread use? I would think the high capacity would be valuable. And we all know how good the ergonomics are.
Hitler's insanity? Must use Lugers and P-38's...
Britain's pride in the Webley?
I understand the USA's decisision to stick with the 1911.
